2006 Fashion Round-Up: The Items
Written by Tania Braukamper
Well the New Year is here, and with it a chance to reflect on what 2006 was all about. First of all, a look at five fashion items that took 2006 by storm.
1. Christian Louboutin pumps. It seemed the Louboutin pump was the shoe that every celebrity stepped out in, every girl wanted... and every store copied.
2. Bubble hems. Dresses and skirts went from boho to bubble. Volume hit the catwalks as a major trend, and was key to the bubble look.
3. Men's Skinny Jeans. Almost every girl had them already - 2006 made them essential rock-star styling for the boys.
4. Roland Mouret Galaxy Dress. The dress that launched a thousand copies - by the start of the year they were showing up in every high-street store, eventually giving way to more flowing numbers through the latter part of the year.
5. Braces. High-waisted skirts, shorts or jeans - whatever it was, you could rock it with a pair of braces in 2006 - worked for boys or girls.
The Olsen twins couldn't get enough of their Louboutin Bruges; Mischa Barton steps out in a bubble hem dress; Adam Brody wearing skinny jeans.

There aren't too many alpha-females out there and, though she might deny it, Tania Braukamper certainly exudes their qualities. A keen eye, a focused approach, and a wardrobe spanning three rooms have made her one of the savviest of dressers. But it's not all couture for Tania, earning her fashionista credentials she'll frequently be seen on the town in a one-off, vintage dress and a pair of Gucci heels.
She says: Vintage will never go out of style
We say: Does that include vintage 80s?
